What's syslog/dmesg say when you try to mount it? Is the /dev/sdx
device available? Fdisk results? Smartctl --all /dev/sdx results?
What kind of disk is it too, spindle or ssd? This isn't a lot of info
to go on, though sounds like a bit of frustration, so think it through
and give more info than less. Typing it out to a list sometimes help
think it through too, otherwise we need the results since not looking
over your shoulder last night.
Sounds like the disk is toast if the fs is *that* unrecoverable. Could
be down to data recovery unless you want to try swapping the firmware
board and pray the arms/heads didn't die. SSD's just start getting
wonky with fs errors it seems when they keel out, or stop reporting into
the controller bios randomly or at all when done.

I tried running the fsck from the live boot DVD, and got something that

qparted, with same results.
Booting in recovery mode that last line is actually the /dev/sdb for the
cd-dvd reader. I can't tell if it dies doing that, or before starting
the next step.
The behavior is the same no matter which kernel I try to boot to, so it
is something outside the kernel that is common to all.
Any further suggestions? The name of a better ext4 file system checker?
